OUR HISTORY
The Dean Democratic Club of Silicon Valley grew out of Silicon Valley for Dean. When Gov. Dean ended his presidential campaign in 2004 and founded Democracy for America, we decided to stay together as the Dean grassroots and form a group loosely allied with DFA that would serve as a progressive, activist voice in the community.
OUR PLAN
Partnering with local and national candidates and like-minded organizations, including DFA, we lend our support to key issues and candidates, and maintain a focus on the future. Through community involvement and creative grassroots activism, we seek to reinvigorate the progressive voter base and transform the Democratic Party from within.
